I still want Thomas Sowell to be the first black president. It isn't fair.

Hey guys choke holds can be life saving, and are not so dangerous when people are trained. I group up with my friends we used plenty of choke holds, nobody died.

@curtisjones400 Nobody is comfortable with people being shot either but some suspects require that treatment. Others need to be choked out. Depends on how dangerous the person is and what tools the cops have at their disposal. Maybe if a police officer is restraining your neck it's time to stop being violent.

@curtisjones400 That goes for any use of force then. By that standard cops need to be restrained from using all force, which isn't possible. We need to count our damn blessings in this country. In what point in history has a nation had body cameras on every single cop, recording virtually every incident? Yet people are more hysterical about general use of force than ever. The issue isn't use of force, it is some of the laws being enforced, and some of the unconstitutional ways they are enforced. But when the rubber hits the road, government is force, that's all it is. If you don't want cops to use force against certain people, change the laws making them a criminal. But don't ban all force.

@curtisjones400 We're all glad for cameras, but what you need to understand is that this anger against police is being used for evil now and people such as yourself are feeding into it. Good people need to be countering the hysterical anti-police narrative. Look at the damage unchecked emotion has already caused across the country, to many cities and states that had nothing to do with George Floyd or any recent deaths. I am angry at the incident in Arizona where Daniel Shafer was killed by an officer. But I'm even more angry at the hundreds of people who have been killed of injured during the riotous behavior after George Floyd's death. Now we have multiple problems instead of one. And if you think the mob will be satisfied by police reforms you'd be wrong. History has shown these people are just getting more and more bold man. BLM / Antifa are at their core violent communist groups. If you aren't a communist yourself, you should reconsider supporting them.
